The Wrap Up

Another week, and more pictures...  And more entertaining thoughts =)


Junior lost his second tooth.


Junior- junior hasn't lost his yet.


Nope, Girly- girl hasn't either =)


Lots of pictures like this...



I guess this is what you find when your camera disappears...


This is the full view of what was being built.


Time for a little roping practice.





And if you rope them, I guess you have to finish tying them up.


Another trip to the zoo...



The finished patio.


And cooking with Junior- junior.  Minus the mess, because this was a completely staged photo =)

We did end up going to the polo match, but I forgot to bring my camera.  Not that it would have mattered too much.  The match was called after 3 chuckers because of the rain.

It's Finished!

The patio that is.  Just need to sweep some more sand inbetween the pavers.  Oh, and find a really nice patio set for really cheap =)  I think I'll be looking through raigslist and freecycle the next couple days...




Oh wait, that's not the finished patio.  That's just what you do with the left over stones.




And hopefully the spots on the lawn where the stones had been sitting will even out and we won't have to re-sod those areas =)

Another week and more pictures

My dad left earlier this week.  I'm pretty sure he was glad to get back to some peace and quiet.  Quiet, that's something that only happens when all the kids are asleep...


So, what do you do when you have a fire?  You roast marshmellows and make s'mores of course.



And then you get chocolate and marshmellows all over your face, and hands, and shirt...


Junior lost his first tooth this week.  Why is he growing up so fast?


We started a little backyard remodeling project.


Putting a patio in.


Only one busted sprinkler line...  But when it comes out at a 30* angle from the wall it's kind of easy to hit it.


Next step is to get the sand and the flagstones.  Couple more weeks and it should be finished.  Then I'll be able to enjoy my morning coffee on the patio.
